Daniel Gustafsson 5b5db413d2 Fix unchecked return value from strdup
The pg_dump compression was using strdup() instead of pg_strdup()
and failed to check the returned pointer for out-of-memory before
dereferencing it. Fix by using pg_strdup() instead which probably
was the intention here in the original patch.

Backpatch to v16 where pg_dump compression was introduced.

Daniel Gustafsson 94415b04ed doc: Fix syntax in ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER example
The example for dropping an option was incorrectly quoting the
option key thus making it a value turning the command into an
unqualified ADD operation. The result of dropping became adding
a new key/value pair instead:

 d=# alter foreign data wrapper f options (drop 'b');
 ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER
 d=# select fdwoptions from pg_foreign_data_wrapper where fdwname='f';
  fdwoptions
 ------------
  {drop=b}
 (1 row)

This has been incorrect for a long time so backpatch to all

Michael Paquier 7f68b14629 pageinspect: Fix failure with hash_bitmap_info() for partitioned indexes
This function reads directly a page from a relation, relying on
index_open() to open the index to read from.  Unfortunately, this would
crash when using partitioned indexes, as these can be opened with
index_open() but they have no physical pages.

Alexander has fixed the module, while I have written the test.

Michael Paquier b4948ed666 pgstattuple: Fix failure with pgstathashindex() for partitioned indexes
As coded, the function relied on index_open() when opening an index
relation, allowing partitioned indexes to be processed by
pgstathashindex().  This was leading to a "could not open file" error
because partitioned indexes have no physical files, or to a crash with
an assertion failure (like on HEAD).

This issue is fixed by applying the same checks as the other stat
functions for indexes, with a lookup at both RELKIND_INDEX and the index

Tom Lane 152bfc0af8 Fix bugs in manipulation of large objects.
In v16 and up (since commit afbfc0298), large object ownership
checking has been broken because object_ownercheck() didn't take care
of the discrepancy between our object-address representation of large
objects (classId == LargeObjectRelationId) and the catalog where their
ownership info is actually stored (LargeObjectMetadataRelationId).
This resulted in failures such as "unrecognized class ID: 2613"
when trying to update blob properties as a non-superuser.

Poking around for related bugs, I found that AlterObjectOwner_internal
would pass the wrong classId to the PostAlterHook in the no-op code
path where the large object already has the desired owner.  Also,
recordExtObjInitPriv checked for the wrong classId; that bug is only
latent because the stanza is dead code anyway, but as long as we're
carrying it around it should be less wrong.  These bugs are quite old.

In HEAD, we can reduce the scope for future bugs of this ilk by
changing AlterObjectOwner_internal's API to let the translation happen
inside that function, rather than requiring callers to know about it.

A more bulletproof fix, perhaps, would be to start using
LargeObjectMetadataRelationId as the dependency and object-address
classId for blobs.  However that has substantial risk of breaking
third-party code; even within our own code, it'd create hassles
for pg_dump which would have to cope with a version-dependent
representation.  For now, keep the status quo.

Michael Paquier 0e2c05af90 Prevent tuples to be marked as dead in subtransactions on standbys
Dead tuples are ignored and are not marked as dead during recovery, as
it can lead to MVCC issues on a standby because its xmin may not match
with the primary.  This information is tracked by a field called
"xactStartedInRecovery" in the transaction state data, switched on when
starting a transaction in recovery.

Unfortunately, this information was not correctly tracked when starting
a subtransaction, because the transaction state used for the
subtransaction did not update "xactStartedInRecovery" based on the state
of its parent.  This would cause index scans done in subtransactions to
return inconsistent data, depending on how the xmin of the primary
and/or the standby evolved.

This is broken since the introduction of hot standby in efc16ea520, so
backpatch all the way down.

Tom Lane ebbd499d4b Be more wary about OpenSSL not setting errno on error.
OpenSSL will sometimes return SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL without having set
errno; this is apparently a reflection of recv(2)'s habit of not
setting errno when reporting EOF.  Ensure that we treat such cases
the same as read EOF.  Previously, we'd frequently report them like
"could not accept SSL connection: Success" which is confusing, or
worse report them with an unrelated errno left over from some
previous syscall.

To fix, ensure that errno is zeroed immediately before the call,
and report its value only when it's not zero afterwards; otherwise
report EOF.

For consistency, I've applied the same coding pattern in libpq's
pqsecure_raw_read().  Bare recv(2) shouldn't really return -1 without
setting errno, but in case it does we might as well cope.

Per report from Andres Freund.  Back-patch to all supported versions.

Amit Kapila 01cc92fa62 Fix an undetected deadlock due to apply worker.
The apply worker needs to update the state of the subscription tables to
'READY' during the synchronization phase which requires locking the
corresponding subscription. The apply worker also waits for the
subscription tables to reach the 'SYNCDONE' state after holding the locks
on the subscription and the wait is done using WaitLatch. The 'SYNCDONE'
state is changed by tablesync workers again by locking the corresponding
subscription. Both the state updates use AccessShareLock mode to lock the
subscription, so they can't block each other. However, a backend can
simultaneously try to acquire a lock on the same subscription using
AccessExclusiveLock mode to alter the subscription. Now, the backend's
wait on a lock can sneak in between the apply worker and table sync worker
causing deadlock.

In other words, apply_worker waits for tablesync worker which waits for
backend, and backend waits for apply worker. This is not detected by the
deadlock detector because apply worker uses WaitLatch.

The fix is to release existing locks in apply worker before it starts to
wait for tablesync worker to change the state.

During a pg_upgrade test using an old dump, all references to the old
regress shared library path (so, dylib or dll) are updated to point to
the library path used by the new build, to ensure a consistent

The test previously relied on a hardcoded value of "src/test/regress/"

to point to the correct location of the regress shared library.

Michael Paquier a499c08dca Apply filters to dump files all the time in 002_pg_upgrade.pl
This commit removes the restriction that would not apply filters to the
dumps used for comparison in the TAP test of pg_upgrade when using the
same base version for the old and new nodes.

The previous logic would fail on Windows if loading a dump while using
the same set of binaries for the old and new nodes, as the library
dependencies updated in the old dump would append CRLFs to the dump
file as it is treated as a text file.  The dump filtering logic replaces
all CRLFs (\r\n) by LFs (\n), which is able to prevent this issue.

When the old and new versions of the binaries are the same,
AdjustUpgrade removes all blank lines, removes version-based comments
generated by pg_dump and replaces CRLFs by LFs.

Fix handling of errors in libpq pipelines

than problems in queries -- for example, when a connection is lost.  We
incorrectly consumed an element from the command queue every time, but
this is wrong and can lead to the queue becoming empty ahead of time,
leading to later malfunction: PQgetResult would return nothing,

Peter Eisentraut 267f33f684 Check collation when creating partitioned index
When creating a partitioned index, the partition key must be a subset
of the index's columns.  But this currently doesn't check that the
collations between the partition key and the index definition match.
So you can construct a unique index that fails to enforce uniqueness.
(This would most likely involve a nondeterministic collation, so it
would have to be crafted explicitly and is not something that would
just happen by accident.)

This patch adds the required collation check.  As a result, any
previously allowed unique index that has a collation mismatch would no
longer be allowed to be created.

Amit Kapila d7ca9209c9 Avoid unconditionally filling in missing values with NULL in pgoutput.
52e4f0cd4 introduced a bug in pgoutput in which missing values in tuples
were incorrectly filled in with NULL. The problem was the use of
CreateTupleDescCopy where CreateTupleDescCopyConstr was required, as the
former drops the constraints in the tuple description (specifically, the
default value constraint) on the floor.

The bug could result in incorrectness when a table replicated via
`REPLICA IDENTITY FULL` underwent a schema change that added a column
with a default value. The problem is that in such cases updates fill NULL
values in old tuples for missing columns for default values. Then on the
subscriber, we failed to find a matching tuple and missed updating the

Tom Lane 85eb771854 Fix timing-dependent failure in GSSAPI data transmission.
When using GSSAPI encryption in non-blocking mode, libpq sometimes
failed with "GSSAPI caller failed to retransmit all data needing
to be retried".  The cause is that pqPutMsgEnd rounds its transmit
request down to an even multiple of 8K, and sometimes that can lead
to not requesting a write of data that was requested to be written
(but reported as not written) earlier.  That can upset pg_GSS_write's
logic for dealing with not-yet-written data, since it's possible
the data in question had already been incorporated into an encrypted
packet that we weren't able to send during the previous call.

We could fix this with a one-or-two-line hack to disable pqPutMsgEnd's
round-down behavior, but that seems like making the caller work around
a behavior that pg_GSS_write shouldn't expose in this way.  Instead,
adjust pg_GSS_write to never report a partial write: it either
reports a complete write, or reflects the failure of the lower-level
pqsecure_raw_write call.  The requirement still exists for the caller
to present at least as much data as on the previous call, but with
the caller-visible write start point not moving there is no temptation
for it to present less.  We lose some ability to reclaim buffer space
early, but I doubt that that will make much difference in practice.

This also gets rid of a rather dubious assumption that "any
interesting failure condition (from pqsecure_raw_write) will recur
on the next try".  We've not seen failure reports traceable to that,
but I've never trusted it particularly and am glad to remove it.

Make the same adjustments to the equivalent backend routine
be_gssapi_write().  It is probable that there's no bug on the backend
side, since we don't have a notion of nonblock mode there; but we
should keep the logic the same to ease future maintenance.

Per bug #18210 from Lars Kanis.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

Heikki Linnakangas 501cfd07da Fix resource leak when a FDW's ForeignAsyncRequest function fails
If an error is thrown after calling CreateWaitEventSet(), the memory
of a WaitEventSet is free'd as it's allocated in the short-lived
memory context, but the file descriptor (on epoll- or kqueue-based
systems) or handles (on Windows) that it contains are leaked.

Use PG_TRY-FINALLY to ensure it gets freed. (On master, I will apply a
better fix, using ResourceOwners to track the WaitEventSet, but that's
not backpatchable.)

The added test doesn't check for leaking resources, so it passed even
before this commit. But at least it covers the code path.

In the passing, fix misleading comment on what the 'nevents' argument
to WaitEventSetWait means.

Report by Alexander Lakhin, analysis and suggestion for the fix by Tom
Lane. Fixes bug #17828. Backpatch to v14 where async execution was
introduced, but master gets a different fix.

Tomas Vondra ee32b824dc Lock table in DROP STATISTICS
The DROP STATISTICS code failed to properly lock the table, leading to

  ERROR:  tuple concurrently deleted

when executed concurrently with ANALYZE.

Fixed by modifying RemoveStatisticsById() to acquire the same lock as
ANALYZE. This function is called only by DROP STATISTICS, as ANALYZE
calls RemoveStatisticsDataById() directly.

Dean Rasheed 72d0c135bd Guard against overflow in interval_mul() and interval_div().
Commits 146604ec43 and a898b409f6 added overflow checks to
interval_mul(), but not to interval_div(), which contains almost
identical code, and so is susceptible to the same kinds of
overflows. In addition, those checks did not catch all possible
overflow conditions.

Add additional checks to the "cascade down" code in interval_mul(),
and copy all the overflow checks over to the corresponding code in
interval_div(), so that they both generate "interval out of range"
errors, rather than returning bogus results.

Given that these errors are relatively easy to hit, back-patch to all
supported branches.

Per bug #18200 from Alexander Lakhin, and subsequent investigation.

On the MERGE page, the description of the privileges required could be
taken to imply that the SELECT privilege is required on all columns of
the data source, whereas actually it is only required on the columns
referred to by conditions or expressions in the MERGE command. Re-word
it to make that a little clearer, and mention expressions as well as
conditions.

Also, add a glossary entry for MERGE, and nearby on the glossary page,
mention MERGE in the list of commands that cannot update a
materialized view.

Daniel Gustafsson 2cf50585e5 llvmjit: Use explicit LLVMContextRef for inlining
When performing inlining LLVM unfortunately "leaks" types (the
types survive and are usable, but a new round of inlining will
recreate new structurally equivalent types). This accumulation
will over time amount to a memory leak which for some queries
can be large enough to trigger the OOM process killer.

To avoid accumulation of types, all IR related data is stored
in an LLVMContextRef which is dropped and recreated in order
to release all types.  Dropping and recreating incurs overhead,
so it will be done only after 100 queries. This is a heuristic
which might be revisited, but until we can get the size of the
context from LLVM we are flying a bit blind.

This issue has been reported several times, there may be more
references to it in the archives on top of the threads linked
below.

This is a backpatch of 9dce22033d to all supported branches.

Tom Lane f07a3039c7 Ensure we preprocess expressions before checking their volatility.
contain_mutable_functions and contain_volatile_functions give
reliable answers only after expression preprocessing (specifically
eval_const_expressions).  Some places understand this, but some did
not get the memo --- which is not entirely their fault, because the
problem is documented only in places far away from those functions.
Introduce wrapper functions that allow doing the right thing easily,
and add commentary in hopes of preventing future mistakes from
copy-and-paste of code that's only conditionally safe.

Two actual bugs of this ilk are fixed here.  We failed to preprocess
column GENERATED expressions before checking mutability, so that the
code could fail to detect the use of a volatile function
default-argument expression, or it could reject a polymorphic function
that is actually immutable on the datatype of interest.  Likewise,
column DEFAULT expressions weren't preprocessed before determining if
it's safe to apply the attmissingval mechanism.  A false negative
would just result in an unnecessary table rewrite, but a false
positive could allow the attmissingval mechanism to be used in a case
where it should not be, resulting in unexpected initial values in a
new column.

In passing, re-order the steps in ComputePartitionAttrs so that its
checks for invalid column references are done before applying
expression_planner, rather than after.  The previous coding would
not complain if a partition expression contains a disallowed column
reference that gets optimized away by constant folding, which seems
to me to be a behavior we do not want.
